Kate Hood stars in ‘Cost of Living’ at QT and STC

Kate Hood stars in the Queensland Theatre and Sydney Theatre Company co-production of Cost of Living by Martyna Majok, directed by Priscilla Jackman and Dan Daw. Nominated for four Tony Awards for its smash-hit run on Broadway, and the winner of the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Cost of Living follows the development of two relationships. Ani, a woman with an acquired disability, reconnects with her estranged husband Eddie who is battling feelings of guilt and loneliness. John, a wealthy Princeton student with cerebral palsy, hires Jess, a woman juggling multiple jobs just to stay afloat, as his carer.

Presented by Queensland Theatre in collaboration with the Sydney Theatre Company, The Cost of Living plays from 15th June – 13th July at Queensland Theatre Company and 18th July – 18th August at Sydney Theatre Company.
